I Built an Agent-Gated Day Pass. Here’s What It Taught Me About the Agent Economy

I built an MCP server that verifies the caller is a real ampersend.ai agent, then hands back a promo code for 50% off a day pass at The House in San Francisco. No account. No API key. Just cryptographic proof.

Shift From API Keys to Per-Request Payments: Solving Agent Loop Spending

A multi-agent system mistakenly burned $47,000+ in API costs. No hacker. No breach. Just bad infrastructure controls.
